The failparade is over!! Congrats Jack!

For those of you who do not share my obsession with flying brass,

Haha. Isn't that what every airgunner secretly desires? To get ice burns on their arm from flying air cartridges? Speaking of which; are those cartridges cold when they're spent?

Sweet! That is gonna be one hell of a gun! Keep at it JSR!! and good luck!

This is just too cool!! I hope it all woks out for you. If this works...are you gonna finally make a complete gun for it?

Check the shoulders on the screws that hold the cogs, maybe there is some wear there that is causing some looseness. If that is the case you can get shim stock (.001 thickness) and wrap the screw shoulder to tighten things up. You said some 'pegs' were bent, that could cause the worm gear to mesh l...

Alrighty. So I plan to close that seam later tonight (If I can can get my homework done, that is). I'll let you know how it goes!

I would like to add... that when working with instruments this old... Its usually a good idea to have a restoration professional take a look and tell ya an approx value in both "as is" and "after i fix it" condition.

And haha, that videos pretty cool

Before I start, I'd like to say that I know this is not spudgun related, but I already asked jrrdw if it was ok, and he said yes. So you don't have to tell me I should take it to Theopia (unless you're a mod of course). I figured that some of you might be interested in this because you may be intere...

Very nice shot Jagerbond!!!
What gun were you using for that shot?

Here's a different kind that I built: http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/new-ham ... rt,15.html

Very nice. It looks to be pretty simple, compact, and functional. However, I can hear that there is a significant delay between shots when the chamber is being refilled...

If mod can fix link that'd be great

click "edit" on the upper right hand corner of your post and add [/img] to the end of that link.
Anyway, I think it it's the size of a pen, it's not a cannon hahaha

According to so some scientific law, I think its Charles's Law, if pressure is increased, the temperature also rises. Now, theoretically say there is a certain material/substance that bursts into flame at a certain temp. In your hybrid is a tiny, tiny piece of that and your accelerant. You start pu...

You did go a bit overboard with the fittings, but if you're going for aesthetics as well I suppose it's justified. I should work nicely.

Yeah, you'd just rather he cast everything in epoxy right?
